I see my intel was correct that Quank's in here. Huh? Cobie, too? I'm gonna find out for myself what Quank's up to. This "sobering up" better not be a front. If I catch him abusing that ring while drunk, I'll be bringing him in!

Click Here For A SpoilerDude, if that's your ship parked outside, I'd tiptoe out and move it from the "reserved" area to the "compact" area of the space-lot.
Normally, The Chief's pretty easygoing about these things, but lately... well, you know.

You might be wondering a few things. How the heck did I sober up? Did I really go on that long of a binger? And what the heck happened during that time? Well guess what. A lot of Legion Worlders who haven’t been on bingers are having similar memory problems. My healing abilities have someway let my mind reclaims those missing memories but it’s taken me awhile to ‘wake up’.
There are some dark things going on here on Legion World. And we need you now more than ever. So pick yourself up, dust yourself off and jump back into the fight.
Space Ranger was working on some things with me but he’s been out of contact for a few months. All the things going down these last few months…Zardi, the tobacco drug ring, Lardy being shot…they’re all connected.
Honestly, we can’t be sure whose listening in anymore. So I’ll tell you this: don’t trust the Luck Lords. Oh and abundant caution does no harm
You may have felt lost…and I feel for you…
<at this, Cobalt stands up and puts his hand on Abin’s shoulder, showing years of friendship make Cobalt feel some real compassion for Abin>
…but we need you now…and this is the path back…

<a furious barrista comes to Ex's table, and slams down her order pad>
Barrista: EX! How many times do I have to tell you? Cafe Cramer is NON-Smoking! One more time and you're banned!
<Annoyed, Ex puts the butt of his tri-gar into the dregs of his mug as she storms away. He surreptitiously leans a bit closer to the conversation, hoping to get another snippet>

Indeed...

Drat! That wasn't helpful at all! Des somehow knew I was here. All the magnetic rassin'-frassin' cloaking I put in this tech was for nought...
...and he's protecting Quank as usual. Every instinct I have is telling me to keep an eye on Quank, and I'll get to the bottom of this cloud of secrecy that's shrouding Legion World lately. Maybe he's sobered up, and that's no longer an issue...but it's really bothering me.
Man, I'm missing the Lard Force I could tail Quank anywhere in an instant. As it is, I need to find someone more natural at espionage...

Ugh, what a day. Hecubus and Succubus almost crashed the Powersphere, we're lucky we still have power today. Don't know what went wrong...everything was running smooth then it all went to hell for no good reason. Hook me up with a Tharrian Java, the blacker the better...I need it.

Question Kid walks into the place with a smile. He walks up to the counter and orders a tall Terreano and a cookie. He asked the barista, "Hey, what other locations do you have?"
"Umm...I don't know. You would have to talk to the manager," she said.
"Okay, I can wait," He sat down and pulled out a travel guide to read. He heard Istanbul was nice this time of year.

<in the background a local saxophone player finishes a steamy tune as the aroma of exotic coffee washes over Dev-Em's senses; he turns to see a stunning beauty stand up; her body says she's not yet 20 years old but her eyes tell a different story; but above all, Dev can see she's vulnerable>
I don't go by that code name anymore. But yes, I'm her.
What can I do for you, Officer?

<a smile comes to her lips but one of humor or joy--one of recognizing there are some things you just can't escape>
I should have known. Take a seat, Officer. I can use another cup.
<she uses her fingers to move the hair out of her eyes>
Dev-Em, right? I can tell you don't know me that well. But I know you. I know all of you. I was what you'd call Cobie's partner for many years. I was his chief intelligence officer...his Oracle if you will.
Lard Lad knows we're estranged, Cobie and I. I'm a little offended he's using that to send you here.
Do I know what Cobie is doing? I have my suspicions. Do I know where is heading? Quite frankly, I think so. But why in the world would I tell you? I just want to be left alone. This LMBP madness has taken enough from me.
